Instructions for updating RAOB datasets:        05/30/08

The set of configuration files for RAOB databasing and display is:

/awips/fxa/data/raobStationInfo.txt

/data/fxa/nationalData/raob.goodness
/data/fxa/nationalData/raobDataKeys.txt
/data/fxa/nationalData/raobDepictKeys.txt
/data/fxa/nationalData/raobProductButtons.txt
/data/fxa/nationalData/raobMenus.txt

To update and activate these files:

1.  Log into the dx1 server as the root user
    Change directory to /awips/fxa/data

     cd /awips/fxa/data

     Backup raobStationInfo.txt

2.   Change to /data/fxa/nationalData, to backup remaining raob datasets

     cd /data/fxa/nationalData

     Backup raob (raob*.txt) datasets

3.  sftp to the NOAA1 server

     sftp         noaa1
     cd /pub/ndm
     get raob.goodness
     get raobProductButtons.txt
     get raobDataKeys.txt
     get raobDepictKeys.txt
     get raobMenus.txt
     lcd /awips/fxa/data
     get raobStationInfo.txt
     bye

4.  Ensure that file ownership and permissions are correct
    on the new files by entering the commands:

     chown fxa:fxalpha raobStationInfo.txt
     chmod 775 raobStationInfo.txt
     chown fxa:fxalpha /data/fxa/nationalData/raob*
     chmod 775 /data/fxa/nationalData/raob*

5.  Copy the updated /awips/fxa/data/raobStationInfo.txt file
    from dx1 to the remaining servers and workstations.
    The following script may be used to accomplish this task:

     for i in dx2 dx3 dx4 ds1 ds2 px1 px2 $LX_WORKSTATIONS $XT_WORKSTATIONS
     do
     echo $i
     scp -p raobStationInfo.txt $i:/awips/fxa/data
     ssh $i "ls -l /awips/fxa/data/raobStationInfo.txt"
     done

6.  On each server and workstation, switch user accounts to
    fxa user and run localization by entering these commands:

     cd /awips/fxa/data/localization/scripts
     ./mainScript.csh -tables -station -clipSups -dataSups

7.  Stop and restart the RaobBufrDecoder on the 
    dx3 server 

    by entering the following commands:

          rlogin dx3
          su - fxa
          stopIngest.dx3
          startIngest.dx3
          exit
          exit

8.  Stop and restart D2D on all of the workstations.
